Although Pei Qian had verbally agreed, he knew very well that this matter couldn’t be rushed. It required long-term planning and gradual implementation.
Lin Wan was currently in a state of extreme confidence and, simultaneously, extremely wary of her family.
She knew that now that her game was successful, old man Lin would certainly be more restless and would try everything possible to get her to come back.
If Pei Qian’s actions were even slightly obvious, Lin Wan might notice.
So, Pei Qian not only needed to find a way to arrange for Lin Wan to leave, but also had to make Lin Wan feel that this had nothing to do with her family, that it wasn’t because old man Lin and Lin Yu were secretly interfering.
How should he approach this?
Originally, the Best Employee selection would have been a good excuse, but the next one was still a long way off.
What if he made an exception for Lin Wan and arranged another Best Employee selection soon?
On one hand, it seemed a bit artificial; on the other hand, there was no guarantee that everyone would vote for Lin Wan—Bao Xu, and others were strong competitors.
To ensure Lin Wan was selected would require some behind-the-scenes manipulation, which was too troublesome.
Pei Qian thought for a moment. The best excuse was still business expansion.
Tell Lin Wan that Tenda was now planning new industries, and as a long-time employee with outstanding business capabilities, she needed to take on some new responsibilities.
Then, increase the difficulty for her, making her retreat in the face of challenges.
But how exactly to implement this…
Pei Qian didn’t have very good ideas at the moment.
So, Pei Qian only agreed to this matter but wasn’t in a hurry to act immediately.
After all, “Return to Shore” would be launching in about a week, and Pei Qian’s primary goal now was to ensure losses before the settlement.
…
September 29th, Wednesday.
Pei Qian first went to check on the new Slackin’ Internet Café.
Ma Yang and Zhang Yuan had strictly followed Pei Qian’s requirements, prioritizing a quick opening, so they hadn’t spent too much time on decoration. The overall style of the internet café looked relatively simple.
However, the purchased tables, chairs, computers, etc., were still completely consistent with the previous Slackin’ Internet Café. Combined with the familiar Slackin’ Internet Café logo at the entrance, the recognizability was quite high.
Pei Qian took a tour around this new store and was quite satisfied.
After removing the coffee and bar areas, the main part of the store was all computers, making it look more compact than the original Slackin’ Internet Café.
There was a rest area and a projector, consistent with the mini-viewing area of the previous Slackin’ Internet Café.
After all, in Pei Qian’s view, this mini-viewing area both took up space and didn’t make money, so there was no reason to remove it.
The computers and peripherals were still high-end configurations, absolutely able to ensure all major games ran at maximum settings, with even some excess performance.
Pei Qian took a tour, verbally praised Zhang Yuan and Ma Yang for their efficiency, and then left.
How the internet café was doing now wasn’t important; what mattered was whether it could successfully lose money in a week or two.
So, he would come back to check in a week.
Pei Qian returned to the Slackin’ Internet Café, Handong University Branch.
The development of “Return to Shore” had been declared complete, scheduled for official release on October 1st, and the final optimization work was also basically completed.
In other words, Qiao Laoshi had completed his historical mission.
During this month and more, Qiao Laoshi had made outstanding contributions to the value planning of “Return to Shore,” for which Pei Qian was deeply grateful.
However, now, Pei Qian had some heartfelt words to say to Qiao Laoshi.
“Mr. Pei, thank you for taking care of me during this time. This trip to Jingzhou has been very meaningful for me!”
“‘Return to Shore’ is a game with very rich spiritual content. When I return to the capital, I will definitely release a video as quickly as possible to share my experiences and insights from playing ‘Return to Shore’ with everyone!”
Qiao Liang looked spirited.
Since coming to Jingzhou, Qiao Liang’s mental state could be described as having many ups and downs, experiencing many fluctuations.
There had been joy, confusion, and moments of questioning life itself.
But now, he had only one feeling, and that was a sense of fulfillment!
Besides the material rewards, he had also seen Mr. Pei’s true face, eaten excellent food at the Nameless Restaurant, and beaten the game “Return to Shore” ahead of all other players.
Qiao Liang felt that compared to other content creators, he had already established a good first-mover advantage, and his technical knowledge and understanding of the game could crush other content creators.
Once this game introduction video is made, it will be another hit video!
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang felt his fighting spirit burning intensely.
The time to gain followers had come!
Pei Qian fell silent, especially after hearing the phrase “release a video as quickly as possible.” his hands trembled involuntarily.
Pei Qian had experienced the power of Qiao Laoshi’s videos many times.
From “Lonely Desert Highway” to “Game Producer,” Qiao Laoshi’s videos had each time brought a large amount of attention to the games, causing Pei Qian heavy losses.
So, this time he had to consider this unstable factor and at least not make the same mistakes as before.
